UCLA Medical School Goes Woke, Gets Busted
2024-05-24
[Red State] When an admissions officer voiced concern about the candidate, the two people said, the dean of admissions, Jennifer Lucero, exploded in anger.

"Did you not know African-American women are dying at a higher rate than everybody else?" Lucero asked the admissions officer, these people said. The candidate's scores shouldn't matter, she continued, because "we need people like this in the medical school."

One of the school's key metrics is the so-called "shelf exam." This exam is administered to medical students at the end of their clinical rotations. This year, we've reached full flower with 50-plus percent failure rates in emergency medicine, family medicine, internal medicine, and pediatrics.

One professor said that a student in the operating room could not identify a major artery when asked, then berated the professor for putting her on the spot

The incompetents forced through training at UCLA will be turned loose on the public. And then we'll see the downstream effects as they injure and kill patients, and the system covers for them because they are elite medical school grads, and if you think their performance sucks, it is because you don't know great medicine and are quite possibly a bigot.

#10  That's the difference between cultivating and forcing.

These DIEs are not your friend, and are not your entrance. They have set up a whole another circle of autocracy and set themselves as gatekeeper. They want you to be incompetent so they teach the wrong lessons and set you up for failure because they themselves are incompetent sociopaths who use emotion as currency because emotion cannot be audited because when you put a competent person next to them their costume falls and their smallness shows. Competence is literally a threat to their job. They are very happy to be the agent of seizing the means of production. The study is DIEsney, the proof is the latest Assassin's Creed putting a Black Man as a position of authority in Feudal Japan and shouting down and cancelling anyone who objects.

They introduce Peter Principle people into the organization because people who know they are out of their depth are easy to control.

They are using you, and rely on silence. They dress up in clownish costumes and say patently opposing statement to disguise the malice and diffuse any criticism. If you go back and re-watch The Fraggles, the Fraggles are bad, evil people disguised as whimsical creatures.

Take a second and re-watch the '88 Baron Munchausen. Right off the bat, The Bureaucrat has a hero soldier executed 'because he makes the ordinary soldier look bad'. Indeed every decision The Bureaucrat makes reduces the strength of The Community. The stories of yore are so reduced The Baron calls the stories lies and balderdash. Gawhd I miss the 80s movies.

And here in this article it is in action. A student in medicine, in which the profession is literally on-the-spot- 24/7/365 on call can't make a simple identification and throws a fit, its the opposite of competency and curiosity which, as theorized, are traits in competition with a DIE's position of authority. If you thought the Covid Response was bad, wait until this crop. They will have no problem giving people The Needle, or whatever the abuse, because they will just go down a Idiocracy List of What To Do Next, no questions asked.

All so people like Lucero can keep their residence inside the walls and they let rovers scour the Outside the Walls, where you will live. They will have no problems using and killing you to keep their position.

They are redecorating The Shooting Wall in Green Screen, and tying to convince us to shoot ourselves. Very coy. Until the next step of convincing us that Direct Action against their detractors-of-the-day is necessary.

These tools are trying to make themselves the reliance.

#9  Worked with #1) a black very competent engineer and #2) one we had to let go during probation (from my Alma Mater :-( ).

#1 was a Navy Vet. Still works there

#8  Imagine busting your ass all the way through High School to fill your dream of being a doctor, then this happens, and you have to wonder if you really have the chops or are you just a checked box.

Imagine going through medical school, say pediatrician, and get straight honors at graduation. Then go into practice, and kill a child because you weren't really trained. Or crash a plane, or drop something from a crane, or put your artillery on friendlies, crash a container ship.

Oh, and you can tell Lucero is a DIE hire; not only can she not control herself like some animal lesser than a dog, but what she said: We Need instead of We Want. Fuck these fraggles who go around destroying and eating everything other people made then preening about in their comical appearance.

#7  In my 30 years of software consulting I can state that the best people I worked with were 1 Black and 1 female, the worst were one black and one female.

It just cemented my belief that that shit don't matter and it's all up to the indvidual.

#6  Back in the 1980s — the first full generation of affirmative action hitting employment age — I worked with a number of young Black chemical engineers who deeply resented the fact that people assumed they’d been hired strictly for the colour of their skin, only eventually recognizing they were precisely as competent as their non-Black peers.

#5  Nothing newsworthy in #1. My first observation was in 19 73. Been a silent observer ever since. 'Silent' for good reason I might add.

#4  Surgery and shit.

By all means, let us have that discussion about the plight of the Black Woman in America. I'll lead:

The Black Woman is the victim of a media full court press to glorify an awful lifestyle, with extra attention from the Healthy at Any Weight lie. Songs which make the highest aspiration of the Black Woman is a WAP or THOT are given the most prestigious awards in the industry. Black talking heads tell them its ok to be late for work, its ok to be a single mother, its ok to have x number of children with different sires. The Screen glorifies the cranky, aggressive, false confidence all the time, and if a Black Woman is shown in a position of dignity, the character is made gay. Respect is definitely a mental health concern and when airlines and schools etc. brag about lowing standards to the point corporate can have a photo op of two Black Women pilots everyone goes nope not that flight, and now the same thing with having a Black Woman with health diagnostics and procedures.

The final hammer blow is that when Black Women, Blacks in general, get outside this fence of failure, people like Jennifer Lucero full sprint all the insults at them, and that sets the next generation's mind that if they, too, become independently successful, they, too, will get the hounds set on them.

#2  Same approach the law schools take to crank ot the likes of Willis, Bragg, Foxx, Gardner, Wade and a horde of others.

Affirmative action got Bath House and Big Mike through school.

#1  Money quotes from the guts of the article:

"And for those who've seen the competency crisis up close, double standards in admissions are a big part of the problem. "All the normal criteria for getting into medical school only apply to people of certain races," an admissions officer said. "For other people, those criteria are completely disregarded."

Led by Lucero, who also serves as the vice chair for equity, diversity, and inclusion of UCLA's anesthesiology department, the admissions committee routinely gives black and Latino applicants a pass for subpar metrics, four people who served on it said, while whites and Asians need near perfect scores to even be considered.

The bar for underrepresented minorities is "as low as you could possibly imagine," one committee member told the Free Beacon. "It completely disregards grades and achievements."
